Experience: 10 yrs
For over 10 years, I've dedicated myself to providing exceptional pet care, treating every animal as if they were my own. I prioritize your pet's comfort and happiness above all else. My approach to pet safety includes strict adherence to feeding schedules and dietary needs. In unexpected situations, I remain calm, follow pre-discussed emergency plans, and immediately communicate any concerns. I find immense joy in helping shy pets feel comfortable and loved in their environment. I'm punctual, responsible, and kind. I would love to help you with your dogs and cats through pet-sitting and walking. Knowing I can bring peace of mind to both you and your furry friend is what makes this work so rewarding. Always feel free to reach out with any questions, I would love to hear from you!
Alvera is such a reliable and caring babysitter for our two dogs. She treats them as her own and it shows! When my dogs see her come in the door they are always eager to run up to her and play. Her communication with us while we are aware is always on point. She will provide daily updates with pictures, and always take my call when I want to FaceTime them. Another great thing to note is that Alvera always follows our directions. We have two dogs that do not like one another but love humans. She ensures they have the correct anxiety meds, keeps them separate from one another but ensures they have the one on one time with her. I cannot express enough how much a relief it is knowing she is with our pups while we are away. She gives them the same level of care we do which can be hard to find. I hate sharing such a great babysitter but her hard work and dedication shouldn’t go unnoticed. Thank you Alvera!
